Edoardo Comar updated KAFKA-3727:
---------------------------------
    Comment: was deleted

(was: To explain better, this is a stack trace when the consumer is stuck in 
the loop :
{quote}
Fetcher<K,V>.listOffset(TopicPartition, long) line: 320 
Fetcher<K,V>.resetOffset(TopicPartition) line: 294      
Fetcher<K,V>.updateFetchPositions(Set<TopicPartition>) line: 170        
KafkaConsumer<K,V>.updateFetchPositions(Set<TopicPartition>) line: 1408 
KafkaConsumer<K,V>.pollOnce(long) line: 982     
KafkaConsumer<K,V>.poll(long) line: 937 
{quote}

that is, the ConsumerNetworkClient will keep invoking {{ awaitMetadataUpdate(); 
}}

{quote}
    private long listOffset(TopicPartition partition, long timestamp) {
        while (true) {
            RequestFuture<Long> future = sendListOffsetRequest(partition, 
timestamp);
            client.poll(future);

            if (future.succeeded())
                return future.value();

            if (!future.isRetriable())
                throw future.exception();

            if (future.exception() instanceof InvalidMetadataException)
                client.awaitMetadataUpdate();
            else
                time.sleep(retryBackoffMs);
        }
    }
{quote}

Don't you think the consumer should give up at some point ?)

>             Project: Kafka
>          Issue Type: Bug
>          Components: clients
>            Reporter: Edoardo Comar
>
> The behavior of a consumer on poll() for a non-existing topic is surprisingly 
> different/inconsistent 
> between a consumer that subscribed to the topic and one that had the 
> topic-partition manually assigned.
> The "subscribed" consumer will return an empty collection
> The "assigned" consumer will *loop forever* - this feels a bug to me.
> sample snippet to reproduce:
> {quote}
> KafkaConsumer<String, String> assignKc = new KafkaConsumer<>(props1);
> KafkaConsumer<String, String> subsKc = new KafkaConsumer<>(props2);
>             List<TopicPartition> tps = new ArrayList<>();
>             tps.add(new TopicPartition("topic-not-exists", 0));
>             assignKc.assign(tps);
>             subsKc.subscribe(Arrays.asList("topic-not-exists"));
>             System.out.println("********* subscribe k consumer ");
>             ConsumerRecords<String, String> crs2 = subsKc.poll(1000L); 
>             print("subscribeKc", crs2); // returns empty
>             System.out.println("********* assign k consumer ");
>             ConsumerRecords<String, String> crs1 = assignKc.poll(1000L); 
>            // will loop forever ! 
>             print("assignKc", crs1);
> {quote}
> the logs for the "assigned" consumer show:
